Unique achievement in NATO FMN validations for Proactivanet

Proactivanet, specialized in IT Service Management (ITSM) solutions, has reached an extraordinary achievement that places it among the elite of innovation applied to international defense. Its SMC (Service Management Capability) solution has been tested and validated as compatible with NATO FMN Spiral 4 during the CWIX 2023 exercise, organized by NATO in Poland.

This recognition puts Proactivanet in a privileged position: it is one of only two tools worldwide to have passed the stringent FMN validation checks up to Spiral 4.

A validated track record Spiral after Spiral

Proactivanet's success in 2023 does not come out of the blue. For years, the company has been participating in NATO's rigorous evaluation processes.

• In his first participations, he passed validation in FMN Spiral 2, opening the door to collaborate in multinational environments.

• Subsequently, it achieved validation in Spiral 3, demonstrating technical consistency and constant evolution.

• Finally, at CWIX 2023, Proactivanet achieved Spiral 4 validation, the highest level achieved to date in interoperability and technological security.

Thanks to this trajectory, the Asturian company has become a global benchmark: it has been able to adapt and overcome each stage, consolidating its position in a highly competitive international market.

FMN: interoperability for multinational defense

Federated Mission Networking (FMN) is NATO' s strategic initiative to ensure that the command, control and communications systems of different allied countries can work together effectively and securely.

In international operations, where armies from different nations participate, interoperability is not an option, but a necessity. FMN establishes the set of standards, processes and methodologies that technological solutions must comply with in order to integrate into this multinational ecosystem.

Spiral 4 introduces advanced cybersecurity, resilience and critical service management requirements. Achieving this validation means that Proactivanet is not only compliant, but ready to integrate into NATO missions and provide strategic value in the most demanding scenarios.

Exclusive, high-impact recognition

The validation obtained by Proactivanet in Spiral 4 is of extraordinary value: only two tools in the world have managed to pass all FMN checks at this level.

This means that, in practice, the Armed Forces and defense organizations worldwide can only choose between two solutions to cover these strategic needs. And one of them is Proactivanet, developed entirely in Spain.

This fact positions the Asturian company as a reliable technological partner, capable of competing with large multinationals and offering an innovative and effective alternative for multinational defense.

Spanish technological pride

Proactivanet's validation not only strengthens its position in the international market, but also represents a source of pride for the Spanish technology ecosystem. Asturias, the company's headquarters, becomes a point of reference for innovation in cybersecurity and IT service management.

Specialized press has already highlighted this role in news such as:

• Defensa.com - Proactivanet monitors Ministry of Defense computers

• Cluster TIC - Proactivanet, Asturian software for the Armed Forces

Conclusion

Proactivanet's path from Spiral 2 to validation in FMN Spiral 4 reflects a strong commitment to innovation, security and interoperability in the military domain.

Today, the company is consolidated as a world reference in NATO FMN validations, being part of an exclusive group of technological solutions that can be deployed in multinational operations.

This extraordinary success confirms that Spanish innovation not only competes in the international market, but also leads in strategic sectors where trust, security and interoperability are essential.
